Hey guys! From what I understand the venturi effect only applies to ideal fluids and it states that a fluid's pressure decreases in a constricted region.

However, if you have have plaque buildup in an artery the pressure will increase. Is this because blood is not an ideal fluid? It would be great if someone could expound on this!
